Fig Jam

Every year our Fig tree gives us a large quantity of natural fruit without any treatment, organic!!!

After picking the ripe figs, Laurence and I are ready to make the jam.

The Recipe

Ingredients for 5 pots:

Time: 1 hour the day before + 1 night of rest + approximately 45 minutes of cooking

1 kg of ripe figs

750 g sugar

1 lemon

The day before

Cut all the figs into quarters.

Put them in the copper jam cauldron.

Add sugar and lemon juice

Mix well

The day after

Place the pot on the heat and bring to a gentle boil.

Remember to stir well regularly

The secret, pour a drop into a clean, cold plate. If this drop does not spread, then your jam is ready.

You can pot it.

The great thing about figs is that there are so many variations possible. Like adding fresh rosemary, vanilla...

Enjoy your meal.
